Owner: No flak from the law for floating Alaska strip club

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — An Alaska man says he didn't have
problems with authorities after he reopened a strip club on his
converted crabbing boat as a way to protest his conviction on
federal charges.

Darren Byler launched the first nightly protest Thursday in a
harbor near the island town of Kodiak. He says about 35 people
showed up to watch eight exotic dancers aboard the 94-foot Wild
Alaskan.

Byler was fined and sentenced to probation in January for
disposing human waste off the same vessel. He says the federal
"poop" charges were retaliation from authorities and others who
disapprove of the exotic-dancer business.

He's not serving alcohol or charging admission, but people have
to pay $25 for a round-trip water-taxi ride.
